The most recent season of Shangri-La Frontier ended just a couple of months ago, and even though Season 3 has already been confirmed, chances are that fans will have to wait a bit to check out new episodes. For those who already feel like revisiting the beginning of the series, Crunchyroll is making this easier, starting today. The anime company is releasing Shangri-La Frontier Season 1 Part 2 on Blu-ray, and the edition is already available for purchase on the website. The Blu-ray was released in the US last month, but now UK fans can finally bring home Part 2.
Part 2 of the Season 1 collection covers episodes 14 to 25, which is a bit after the beginning of The Tombguard Arc and stretches all the way to the Ether Reactor arc. On the first one, Sunraku (voiced by Yūma Uchida in the original Japanese and by Eric Vale in the English dub) reunites with friends from other games and they make the important decision of taking on the Colossus Wezaemon, the sword-wielding guardian who puts up a heck of a fight — after all, he is one of the seven colossi, the big bosses of the VR online game.
After that, the Ether Reactor Arc shows the aftermath of an epic fight and the loot that Sunraku and his friends were able to collect. However, this is when the group finds out that they need to gather materials in order to fix a reactor. The arc also wraps Season 1 of the series, setting the stage for Sunraku's unexpected change of mind and decision to take a break from the Shangri-La Frontier video game.
When Does 'Shangri-La Frontier' Season 3 Premiere?
Season 3 of Shangri-La Frontier was confirmed almost immediately after Season 2 wrapped, but so far, no release date has been announced for the new episodes. If the anime series keeps a regular release schedule, though, we would be able to check out a new season in about five months — Seasons 1 and 2 of the series both debuted in October and one year apart. At the same time, the series has a hefty episode count, at 25 per season, which means that it takes time to bring all of that to life. So, for now, fans will have to wait for an official announcement of the new season.
Shangri-La Frontier started out as a web novel series created by Katarina in 2017. It was then adapted into manga format and quickly became one of the fastest-selling titles of the last five years, with over 12 million copies in circulation. The anime series is brought to life by animation studio C2C, the same one responsible for Reincarnated as a Sword and Otaku Elf.
The Shangri-La Frontier Season 1 Part 2 Blu-ray is now available to order in the US and the UK. You can also stream the series on Crunchyroll.
